@FlottbombPart of the problem in 2042 is the fact that 3 of the main “transport” vehicles are actually mobile Death Stars that also happen to carry troops.
MAV, Condor and Hind are infantry killing machines. This breaks total vehicle balance when you add mobile Death Stars to the tanks and gunships vs infantry.
Instead of reinventing the wheel why doesn’t DICE use the same formula they used in BF4? Not every map needs every vehicle in game and every vehicle has a vehicle that’s a hard counter. Jets vs helo comes to mind.
Also 2 condors and 2 hinds on every single map is ludicrous. Especially the smaller classic maps. On the Classic BF maps each team should only get 1 Condor and 1 Hind.

They were Death Stars before but nobody noticed it because there were other vehicles as well to keep them in check. Of course they start farming infantry when there’s almost no competition in the air for them. You people whined about vehicles being too op and they reduced the number of helicopters. Now the transports are bringing the pain among infantry because they have nothing else to shoot at.
You have a lot of ways to kill a transport. It’s not my fault you are bad at the game and you wanna take it down by yourself with just one click.
If you would stop whining for a second maybe DICE wouldn’t nerf the vehicles and they could actually fight each other.
Back when there were 4 attack helicopters on hourglass , as a transport main, I did not even had time to farm infantry because all I did was fight the other aircraft. But you wouldn’t know about this because you don’t know every aspect of this game. 😉
Repost your entire post on my thread. It looks like yours was locked because someone was being rude.

What’s the point? People will be salty anyway.
Edit: I made a new one.
@GigaGogleAbsolutely right. I’ve tried to make that same point in other threads. Removing vehicles is NOT the answer. Having plentiful vehicles (especially armored and attack air) in a BF game traditionally changes the style of play so vehicles are providing cover from enemy vehicles at objectives. A lot less chaotic and more objective-focused than what we have now in 2042.
edit: missed a word.
@GigaGoglefyi the first signs you’ve lost an argument or debate is going straight to personal attacks, which is EXACTLY what you’re doing because simply you don’t like my opinion. You’re making laughable assumptions about me because you’re incapable of discussing facts.
I’ve played every BF game hundreds of hours since I left active duty in 2008. Unlike you, I’m highly qualified can give a fair and balanced, professional brief back on my personal experience without bringing personal insults or biases into the equation.
For starters 2042 Devs threw out the formula that worked magnificently in previous titles of only allowing certain vehicles and certain airframes per map, depending on the terrain on each map.
Previous BF games, on any specific map, might have 2 gunboats, 4 RIBS(rubber inflatable boat) a Little Bird and a Huey, plus 1 jet per team. With the 2042 formula, you’d see 2 Hinds, an attack heli, 2 tanks, and a MAV plus 2 gunboats and 4 RIBS per team. Way too many vehicles.
Some BF1 maps might only have 1 tank per team and zero aircraft. Not so in 2042. They’d have 2 Condors, Attack heli, 2 tanks, the MAV plus call ins on the same exact map with zero concern for how the number of vehicles effects the infantry portion of the game for that specific map.
The 2042 vehicle to infantry ratio/formula is lazy with ZERO forethought put into how many vehicles are appropriate for each map. DICE simply shoves every vehicle possible on every map. That includes the Classic maps where they add the 2042 specialist and 2042 vehicles. This has been to the detriment of the infantry vs infantry portion of the game. The ever present Death Stars(Condor and Hind) It’s like playing BF1 with both teams on every single map
always having an enemy Zeppelin overhead.

weren't you just whining that the condor is too easy to kill? now you agree that they are a death star and always were. which is it? also, transport main sounds like a fancy way of saying taxi driver...
